~Fleamarket Finds and JoAnn Fabric~

Stush went to the Steeler game yesterday so I went to the fleamarket. Not much that I wanted...I'm looking for kitchen things to put up above my cupboards with my crocks and bowels instead of the tins, one thing I found is that graters are becoming scarce, I used to find them all the time, now I haven't found one for a very long time. I did find an old, plain feedsack for $1.50 that I'll use for my stitcheries. The rolling pin I got for $3.00 I'll put it in the crock with the rest, then I found 25 feet of Martha Stewart Christmas ribbon for a $1.00, brand new and the original price on it was $5.99. I want to learn how to make those lovely Christmas bows for my presents this year, Robin at Robin's Nest has a video to watch for making bows and I plan on doing that soon. I also bought a wooden box for $3.00 and two hanging baskets of mums each at $5.00 a piece, much cheaper than Walmart! After I left there I stopped at JoAnn Fabric everything pictured was 40% off except for the fall leaves. Also picked up some wire stems for the bows!

After that I went to get my nails done and here they weren't open, Closed on Sunday's the sign said, so I'll do that tomorrow:) On my way home I stopped at the Country Store and bought two of these make-do's, one for my daughter, plus all the homespun is $3.00 a yd... loved this black homespun.

I also bought two other prim items but can't show them...one is for a gift and I just sent it out today so I know she doesn't have it yet:) The other is for my Christmas Stocking Swap that Robin is hosting. Yes, I've started to buy for that already because it will be here before you know it.:) Have a great evening everyone!
